I have created a language "Russian ru" in the backend of the cmCalendar module. Then filled in the translations for the months and all the other fields. For example: январь, февраль, март... (January, February, March,...).

All non-date related fields are displayed correctly in Russian when the browser is set to Russian language. But all date related fileds (e.g. month and day) are displayed as question marks instead.

Looks like the module has a charset problem?

Ensure that all is UTF-8 and CMS installation too. If you might use WIN-1251 store the translation in that format too.

Means, I have to change these Russian translated fields separately to WIN-1251 in the MySQL database?

No there are hard-coded language files (I think, do not know the module's programming) — and these have to match the charset you use or must be html encoded.

But why are the non-date related fields in Russian displayed correctly in cyrillic?

I do not know. Only the coder knows.

Link to site and BE-Access and template-code used per PM, please

I think, it's a global problem and has not much todo with the cmCalendar module. See my latest post: http://forum.phpwcms.org/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=24381
